Dean gets mean – on live TV (Orders aides to remove his wife from rally)

Sounds like Mrs. Dean may be prone to anxiety attacks or phobic reactions. That would explain a lot.

Dean just reminds everyone of the Wellstone Rally.

Why did he want his wife removed? Was the crowd turning ugly or something? This is just plain weird.

This is a strange story. I can't buy it, frankly.

Sawyer picked on Judy Dean not using her husband's name professionally. Judy Dean said nicely, at home I'm just Judy Dean. Professionally, I'm Dr. ??? (I can't remember her name). Lots of women in professions keep their maiden names because of the recognition. It's not a big deal.

Yep -- we don't see Diane Sawyer going by the name Diane Nichols, or hanging out at her husband Mike Nichols' movie sets every day. To say the least, it was hypocritical for her to attack Dean's wife for her choice of names, and her choice to keep her job.

Excellent post! Spot on. The libs do not ever stick to principle but simply pound on whoever their latest victim is with whatever comes into their pea brains. (Or more properly, what has been bullet-point fed into their pea brains).

Except that Mike Nichols, thank God, isn't running for president.

But if he was, would it be a complaint that Diane Sawyer goes by Diane Sawyer in her profession.

These days lots of women get married after their careers have been established, and they want to keep that name recognition.

If Condoleeza Rice gets married, would anyone think anything different of her if she still went by Condoleeza Rice. I don't think so.

Dean people suck.

Yep. The thing is, Diane Sawyer did with the Deans what Jim Gray did when interviewing Pete Rose -- made you feel sorry for the people being interviewed!
